😠 Racist training program. Slides from the employee training program refer to "ethnic parents" as "exotic" and "Extra Attention Ellies." Not sure how this is still okay in the 21st century. People often mention swimming, swim, loves, lessons, Nicole, water, work, instructor, started, skills,

    Staff is very unwelcoming especially the heavier set receptionist! Instructors acted as if they didn’t want to swim with my daughter prices are to high! I definitely recommend taking your money elsewhere

    Our son Bryce began swimming with Nicole in April 2021 and we couldn’t be happier. He has made tremendous progress and has become a different child in the water. It has been a pleasure to watch him increase his confidence and skills weekly and he continues to amaze us with all that he is doing. Nicole has taken a child who was nervous and anxious in the water and turned him into a confident and happy emerging swimming. Nicole has shown extreme patience, kindness and determination while working with Bryce. It is evident every week that she loves coming to work and teaching others the skills needed to swim. She knows exactly how to work with Bryce, how to make him comfortable and how to help him learn and carryover new skills. He loves going to class every week and he can’t wait to get in the pool with her. We are so lucky to work with her! The location itself is always clean and the staff is very welcoming and friendly! :)

    My son has been swimming with Saf-T-Swim for some time and absolutely loves it. At this point we feel like family when we walk in! Victoria always greets us with a big hello and smile and is always ready to help. His instructor, Emma, is patient with him each week and continually encouraging! He also participated in the swim clinic this summer and although he's the youngest, Nicole continues to work with him each week and never let's him give up! Everyone there is amazing, but what really encouraged me to finally write a review was the time, energy and support that Victoria, Nicole and Emma have put into helping us decide how to move forward with competitive swimming and giving us options and ways to continue to encourage our boy and his love of swimming. Thank you, thank you - I can't recommend Saf-T-Swim enough!

    My 5 year old son has been going to swimming lessons here for 2 years. We have had Ms Joan as our instructor and we love her! My son looks forward to lessons and has become so confident in the water. As a parent, I know that he is safe and learning. The office staff is incredible too! Maria is always there to answer my questions and assist me with schedule changes. The facilities were just renovated as well. You will not be disappointed with the beautiful facilities! We are proud to be part of the Saf-T-Swim Coram family!

    We have been going to the Coram SafTSwim since April 2021 so about a year and a half now and we have loved it so far. The remodel they just did makes a HUGE difference, it’s bright and cool and comfortable. We looked into other swim places in Suffolk county just to see what else was available and honestly for the price and quality, SafTSwim can’t be beat. We do miss Miss Val and Vinny at Coram but Miss Vicky has been a God send to our 2 1/2 (who started at 6 months) and 4 year old (who started when he was 21 months old). Our kids are confident, not just in the pool, but in all they do, and we firmly believe it is partially because of the skills they learn in the water. And not just the instructors in the water are great, but also the front end staff, especially Miss Kim, who always greets us with a smile and positive attitude- she’s personable and warm and all in all, every experience there has been a good one. Highly recommend SafTSwim especially if you want some peace of mind in the water.

    My son LOVES coming to swimming lessons! We started when he was an infant with the Baby & Me classes, and this year started the one-on-one classes. For both classes we had Joan as our instructor and she is awesome! She makes my son feel so comfortable and has taught him so much. Kim and the entire management team has been great as well. They were very reassuring when we first started 1on1 and my son would scream the whole time, and are very helpful and accommodating when we’ve needed help. Lastly, we love the new facility. It’s so clean, open, and airy now and makes watching the lessons so much more comfortable. I would recommend for kids of all ages!

    We have been coming to Safety Swim in Coram since 2015. My daughter Samantha started lessons with Victoria a few years later and quickly advanced levels. My son Matthew started lessons with Victoria when he was a little over a year old in the beginning of 2020. Then the pandemic hit and we didn’t return to Safety Swim until July 2020. My daughter ended lessons when she achieved level seven and my son is currently still going. He absolutely loves it and has progressed so well because of Victoria’s professionalism and willingness to push my son in a healthy and consistent manner. My husband and I believe our son Matthew is in the best hands possible and we couldn’t be happier with having Victoria as his swim instructor!

    My daughter has special needs and she had Lex as her swimming instructor. The lessons went great, Lex was very patient and kind.

    I've been very disappointed with this location. Im not sure if it's the business or location to be honest... I had many instances where my daughters instructor wasn't available, which cancelled my appointment, sometimes within an hour or 2 of my class schedule. The new update with the app lost all my make ups, ones the location knew were supposed to be no expiration, they "tired" to fix but couldn't after going back and forth. The switch to the app also logged me as there in December, which we weren't, they said they would correct. I don't believe they have. She got sick a lot over the winter so we decided to pause and the manager of this location at the time was going to work on getting her a more seasoned instructor, and have her restart in March. I never heard from him and when I called he was gone and no one knew anything about this. At the end of it all a nice lady Lisa said she was working with corporate to get me a refund for the balance due to my experience there. I went back and forth for several weeks. Now months later I still have no refund. I don't want to log into the app, because the last time I did that we were charged a class we didn't attend. Very disappointed don't come here. They really don't care about your child learning to swim, from my experience with the instructors.

    We have been swimming here for years! The staff is always friendly and helpful. We have had numerous instructors and each one has been fantastic. Can't go wrong!

    Staff is great and my kids have learned a lot but they have recently raised their prices to a point which I think is unreasonable and is going to result in our family leaving. It’s unfortunate because we’ve had a great experience here and the kids love to go. If you can afford it, I would say it’s a no-brainer.

    My 6 yr old daughter Elena loves Calista. They're so good together. She loves going to swim with her. She's so patient and kind. Great experience these past few months.

    Nice friendly staff. My son has been going there for about Year now. He has improved soo much. The two primary instructors I have experience with were Maria who got him started and Alex took over. Great instructors with experience.

    I was a new member. My two daughters attended swimming class over there. We made a 8 class deal with these guys. I paid the half of the price before the classes starts. We took some classes then they called me that the price increased, they switched my course to monthly one without my permission and tried to get high fee. I got very upset, one of my friend recommended this swimming course but this is a big disappointment for me. The management is so weak, they don’t know their records. I will never ever send my children to this course again.
